Connections: Discussing the psychology of political signs

It's the time of year for political yard signs and flags, but this election season feels different. Neighbors tell us that political signs elicit powerful emotions, sometimes anger. And some listeners tell us they are afraid to put up political signs because they don’t know how their neighbors will react.

We talk about the psychology of political signs and why they feel so divisive this time around. Our guests:

  • Seth Steinehour, Rochester resident
  • Andrea Holland, Rochester resident
  • Eric, Rochester resident
  • Terry, Rochester resident
